The original XenoLinux code has always had things this way, and for compatibility reasons (in particular with a subsequent pciback adjustment) upstream Linux should behave the same way (allowing for two distinct error indications to be returned by the backend). Signed-off-by:

Prior to 2.6.19 and as of 2.6.31, pci_enable_msix() can return a positive value to indicate the number of vectors (less than the amount requested) that can be set up for a given device. Returning this as an operation value (secondary result) is fine, but (primary) operation results are expected to be negative (error) or zero (success) according to the protocol. With the frontend fixed to match the XenoLinux behavior, the backend can now validly return zero (success) here, passing the upper limit on the number of vectors in op->value. Signed-off-by:

That function calls mp_find_ioapics to get the 'struct ioapic' structure - which along with the mp_irq[x] is used to figure out the default values and the polarity/trigger overrides. Since the mp_find_ioapics now returns -1 [b/c the IOAPIC is filled with 0xffffffff], the acpi_get_override_irq() stops trying to lookup in the mp_irq[x] the proper INT_SRV_OVR and we can't install the SCI interrupt. The proper fix for this is going in v3.5 and adds an x86_io_apic_ops struct so that platforms can override it. But for v3.4 lets carry this work-around. This patch does that by providing a slightly different variant of the fake IOAPIC entries. Signed-off-by: -

When xen_emul_unplug=never is specified on kernel command line reading files from /sys/hypervisor is broken (returns -EBUSY). It is caused by xen_bus dependency on platform-pci and platform-pci isn't initialized when xen_emul_unplug=never is specified. Fix it by allowing platform-pci to ignore xen_emul_unplug=never, and do not intialize xen_[blk|net]front instead. Signed-off-by:

The pirq_eoi_map is a bitmap offered by Xen to check which pirqs need to be EOI'd without having to issue an hypercall every time. We use PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2 to map the bitmap, then if we succeed we use pirq_eoi_map to check whether pirqs need eoi. Changes in v3: - explicitly use PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2 rather than PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn; - introduce pirq_check_eoi_map, a function to check if a pirq needs an eoi using the map; -rename pirq_needs_eoi into pirq_needs_eoi_flag; - introduce a function pointer called pirq_needs_eoi that is going to be set to the right implementation depending on the availability of PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2.

With patch "xen/cpufreq: Disable the cpu frequency scaling drivers from loading." we do not have to worry about said drivers loading themselves before the xen-acpi-processor driver. Hence we can remove the default selection (=y if CPU frequency drivers were built-in, or =m if CPU frequency drivers were built as modules), and just select =m for the default case. Signed-off-by: -

Under the Xen hypervisor we do not want the initial domain to exercise the cpufreq scaling drivers. This is b/c the Xen hypervisor is in charge of doing this as well and we can end up with both the Linux kernel and the hypervisor trying to change the P-states leading to weird performance issues.

PV-on-HVM guests may want to use the xen keyboard/mouse frontend, but they don't use the xen frame buffer frontend. For this case it doesn't make much sense for INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND to depend on XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND. The opposite direction always makes more sense, i.e. if you're using xenfb, then you'll want xenkbd. Switch the dependencies. Acked-by:

This driver solves three problems: 1). Parse and upload ACPI0007 (or PROCESSOR_TYPE) information to the hypervisor - aka P-states (cpufreq data). 2). Upload the the Cx state information (cpuidle data). 3). Inhibit CPU frequency scaling drivers from loading. The reason for wanting to solve 1) and 2) is such that the Xen hypervisor is the only one that knows the CPU usage of different guests and can make the proper decision of when to put CPUs and packages in proper states. Unfortunately the hypervisor has no support to parse ACPI DSDT tables, hence it needs help from the initial domain to provide this information. The reason for 3) is that we do not want the initial domain to change P-states while the hypervisor is doing it as well - it causes rather some funny cases of P-states transitions. For this to work, the driver parses the Power Management data and uploads said information to the Xen hypervisor. It also calls acpi_processor_notify_smm() to inhibit the other CPU frequency scaling drivers from being loaded. Everything revolves around the 'struct acpi_processor' structure which gets updated during the bootup cycle in different stages. At the startup, when the ACPI parser starts, the C-state information is processed (processor_idle) and saved in said structure as 'power' element. Later on, the CPU frequency scaling driver (powernow-k8 or acpi_cpufreq), would call the the acpi_processor_* (processor_perflib functions) to parse P-states information and populate in the said structure the 'performance' element. Since we do not want the CPU frequency scaling drivers from loading we have to call the acpi_processor_* functions to parse the P-states and call "acpi_processor_notify_smm" to stop them from loading. There is also one oddity in this driver which is that under Xen, the physical online CPU count can be different from the virtual online CPU count. Meaning that the macros 'for_[online|possible]_cpu' would process only up to virtual online CPU count. We on the other hand want to process the full amount of physical CPUs. For that, the driver checks if the ACPI IDs count is different from the APIC ID count - which can happen if the user choose to use dom0_max_vcpu argument. In such a case a backup of the PM structure is used and uploaded to the hypervisor.

Unfortunately xend creates a bogus console/0 frotend/backend entry pair on xenstore that console backends cannot properly cope with. Any guest behavior that is not completely ignoring console/0 is going to either cause problems with xenconsoled or qemu. Returning 0 or -ENODEV from xencons_probe is not enough because it is going to cause the frontend state to become 4 or 6 respectively. The best possible thing we can do here is just ignore the entry from xenbus_probe_frontend. Signed-off-by:

For the hypervisor to take advantage of the MWAIT support it needs to extract from the ACPI _CST the register address. But the hypervisor does not have the support to parse DSDT so it relies on the initial domain (dom0) to parse the ACPI Power Management information and push it up to the hypervisor. The pushing of the data is done by the processor_harveset_xen module which parses the information that the ACPI parser has graciously exposed in 'struct acpi_processor'. For the ACPI parser to also expose the Cx states for MWAIT, we need to expose the MWAIT capability (leaf 1). Furthermore we also need to expose the MWAIT_LEAF capability (leaf 5) for cstate.c to properly function. The hypervisor could expose these flags when it traps the XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX operations, but it can't do it since it needs to be backwards compatible. Instead we choose to use the native CPUID to figure out if the MWAIT capability exists and use the XEN_SET_PDC query hypercall to figure out if the hypervisor wants us to expose the MWAIT_LEAF capability or not. Note: The XEN_SET_PDC query was implemented in c/s 23783: "ACPI: add _PDC input override mechanism". With this in place, instead of C3 ACPI IOPORT 415 we get now C3:ACPI FFH INTEL MWAIT 0x20 Note: The cpu_idle which would be calling the mwait variants for idling never gets set b/c we set the default pm_idle to be the hypercall variant.

The use case of this is when a driver wants to call FLR when a device is attached to it using the SysFS "bind" or "unbind" functionality. The call chain when a user does "bind" looks as so: echo "0000:01.07.0" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/XXXX/bind and ends up calling: driver_bind: device_lock(dev); <=== TAKES LOCK XXXX_probe: .. pci_enable_device() ...__pci_reset_function(), which calls pci_dev_reset(dev, 0): if (!0) { device_lock(dev) <==== DEADLOCK The __pci_reset_function_locked function allows the the drivers 'probe' function to call the "pci_reset_function" while still holding the driver mutex lock.

Fix is obvious - just extend the area covered by ->wq_mutex over that switch and check whether it's catatonic *before* doing anything else. Acked-by:

We need to recheck ->catatonic after autofs4_wait() got ->wq_mutex for good, or we might end up with wq inserted into queue after autofs4_catatonic_mode() had done its thing. It will stick there forever, since there won't be anything to clear its ->name.name. A bit of a complication: validate_request() drops and regains ->wq_mutex. It actually ends up the most convenient place to stick the check into... Acked-by:

lib: use generic pci_iomap on all architectures Many architectures don't want to pull in iomap.c, so they ended up duplicating pci_iomap from that file. That function isn't trivial, and we are going to modify it https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/14/183 so the duplication hurts. This reduces the scope of the problem significantly, by moving pci_iomap to a separate file and referencing that from all architectures. * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost: alpha: drop pci_iomap/pci_iounmap from pci-noop.c mn10300: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP mn10300: add missing __iomap markers frv: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP tile: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP tile: don't panic on iomap sparc: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP sh: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP powerpc: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP parisc: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP mips: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP microblaze: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP arm: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP alpha: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP lib: add GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP lib: move GENERIC_IOMAP to lib/Kconfig Fix up trivial conflicts due to changes nearby in arch/{m68k,score}/Kconfig
